Well, I've heard different reports on this... some said that he was asleep when they found him, others said that he was "disoriented and confused"
Maybe he was just too shagged out from the months of hiding and running ?
:lol:
Or, on the other hand, what's his view on suicide?
I know he thinks it's okay to top yourself if you're taking infidels out with you, but maybe it's not the same if you're alone?

That's a bit harsh.
The chaps getting on a bit, he was having his nap and the bad men woke him up.
Bet he was grumpy for the rest of the day after that.
Probally heard from his information minister " No Saddam no troops within a hundred miles from here, Honestly"

Very droll.
I am sorely tempted to view this grand development with a jaundiced eye.
Anti-U.S. sentiment is already rearing it's head here-possibly we should regard Saddam's capture as another miserable failure of American intelligence.
Who would stand with me in demanding the United Nations furnish Saddam with the finest French lawyer American dollars can buy?
Saddam will be tried in Iraq, by Iraqis.
The U.N. and the Hague Court will bellyache to no avail.
So be it.
Let us not forget Saddam was, at heart, a secularist, which accounts at least in part for his docility during capture.
Watch for the subtle effect of this little-noted fact in the reactions of the Arab street as well as any statements by Hamas, or actions by other terrorist groups.
This will be very interesting.
I think you over-analyse j2.Quote:

He was a cowardly bag of shite. When the chips were down, he went with a whimper and not a bang. He was happy for everyone else to die for the cause, but when it came to him, I think not. It sums his existence up.
I stay say he will go hat-stand defence.
Though I have to say, I cannot support your position with regard to Legal Aid.

You over-state with regard to my over-analysis, J'Pol.
It is that he was a non-believer that was his un-doing.
He was, purely and simply, nothing more than a (simple) PUNK.
Which was my point; also that he can now safely be disavowed by the Arabs who do genuinely believe. :)
So you don't think he is worthy of legal-aid?
I reckon if Kofi Annan agrees with you than Saddam is in heap big-trouble.
I say this as a mate, please take it the right way -
No shit Sherlock.
Well, according to the news, it looks like Saddams trial will indeed be a public one, held by the Iraqi people.
Theres also talk of him being given hundreds of death sentences for war crimes.
...and then they'll start on the 20+ years of crimes against humanity....
I don't think theres ever been another man in history who's been more screwed than Saddam is right now..
